Critique of the Trinitarian Social Model of Leonardo Boff

The "Critique of Leonardo Boff's Trinitarian Social Model" is a well-founded examination of Boff's thesis that the Holy Trinity should serve as a source of inspiration and a critical element for human society. This research questions whether Boff's argument can be regarded as merely a hypothesis or as a fundamental axiom. The author, Wilbert Gobbo, not only provides a critical analysis of the Trinitarian Social Model (TSM) but also proposes an alternative Social Trinitarian Model (STM) based on Small Christian Communities (SCCs) in Tanzania. This model promotes an inclusive vision of society built on the values of unity and hope, integrating the human values of 'syn-bios', 'syn-pathos', and 'syn-hodos'. The SCCs are seen as a 'foretaste' of the Kingdom of God, and the model has the potential to inspire not only in Tanzania but also in other African societies and beyond.
